A panda walks into a bar. He orders a sandwich, eats it, then draws a gun and fires two shots in the air.

"Why? Why are you behaving in this strange, un-panda-like fashion?" asks the confused waiter, as the panda walks towards the exit. The panda produces a badly punctuated wildlife manual and tosses it over his shoulder.

"I'm a panda," he says, at the door. "Look it up."

The waiter turns to the relevant entry and, sure enough, finds an explanation.

"Panda. Large black-and-white bear-like mammal, native to China. Eats, shoots and leaves."

I recommend this book to every aspiring writer - Eats, Shoots & Leaves: The Zero Tolerance Approach to Punctuation by Lynne Truss.

what you gonna do about it?

Not planning on being a martyr, that's for sure. Guess that depends on what Fortuna hands me.

For now I'm happy to gather info and watch everything around me as closely as I realistically can. Maybe that leads to something worth while, maybe not.

I could mos def use a refresher course in proper punctuation. I think I get my point across though.

I don't feel that way. i don't know how you can read what I wrote and get that out of it but uummm, OK. I don't feel powerless at all. I have much more control over my life than anyone else, and I'm good with that. You can only be manipulated if you allow yourself to be manipulated. You do what you can and live with that. If you are strong you will be cool with that if you are weak you will fear it. I didn't even feel powerless doing time....
